Community Outreach Since 1982

 2010 Buck for Hunger Drive

Our 19th annual "Buck for Hunger" drive is underway. Donations contributed will provide Valley Churches United Missions with the funds to operate our direct aid assistance programs throughout the year. The Holidays are over, but hunger continues to increase. One out of 5 children live in poverty, and you'll find 1 child in 5 in soup kitchen lines.

Donations are immediately converted to direct aid assistance in the form of emergency food, gas vouches, clothing, utility and rent assistance to avoid eviction or foreclosure, job training materials, school supplies, minor emergency dental and disaster relief.. 94% of all income actually gets to those in need.

Donations are solicited, only by mail and collection receptacles, in our local stores, businesses and churches.

This mission has grown from a $11,000 budget in 1982 to the present budget of $894,000. Your contributions are carefully distributed to the truly needy without bureaucratic hassles. Our programs operate solely by a dedicated 99% volunteer staff.

URGENT!! We have just been informed that we have a chance to receive a challenge match grant from Alan Feinstein, a philanthropist. Donations must be dated from March 1st thru April 30th to be eligible. Please help us to take advantage of this opportunity.

Warm regards,
